Help Zachary » » Zachary is A+……………

Update… now Zachary’s blood pressure are 150/99!!! Not liking!! His creatinine “Kidney function level” is 1.5!!! from 2.2-2.5 love that level, but it is a false lab because his BP’S is so high.. this happened last time he had high BP’S His creatinine level was low as soon as they got his BP’S down we took a huge jump. That rest of his labs are not the best. On November 30, Zachary is going to be admitted at the U of M for a week for some more testing.We were going to have a big last 5 yr Kidney Transplant party on December 1.. I guess we will have to have it in the Hospital. December 1, 2004 my wonderful husband Zachary’s daddy gave his the best gift ever!@!! he gave him one of his Kidneys. Now 5 yrs later Zachary is in Kidney failure and we are just starting to get the ball rolling on testing people to find a new Kidney for Zachary.

This will be Zachary again!!! Hopefully next summer!!!

Zachary is doing pretty good….. He is still throwing up and feels sick every morning. Yesterday he asked me twice about How excited he is to get a new Kidney and not feel sick anymore. He is only 5 yrs old and I feel helpless….His energy is up and down some days he is very hyper and runs crazy and other days he just lays in front of the TV with a puke bucket in front of him. Overall he is in good spirits and I still get to see that wonderful smile every day.

Today the nurse comes out to draw his Friday labs.. I pray that they stay the same or have gotten better….Also last night Zachary had very high Blood pressures 140/96!!!! I have not seen it that high in about 3 weeks. I am a little worried, so I am once again waiting for a call back from the Doctor.

At about 4AM Zachary woke up and was complaining that he was dizzy so I checked his blood sugar and it was good 92.. He is on 24 hr j-tube feed and his Glucose is usally 110-130 because he is also getting food none stop. on Wednesday his Glucose had dropped to 46!! he was very dizzy and his heart was pounding.

Hopefully next week we will have the ball rolling to start testing people.. Zachary is A+ and his antibodies are very very high! they are still running and Dr Najara is very concerned. After Zach’s Plamsapheresis his Antibodies were 91% now they are thinking that he is a lot higher. Yesterday i got a call from Matching Donors about being in a Kidney swap. They are going to draw my blood and Zachary’s and put us in the system. But first we need to get his final results on his Antibodies.

Zachary is A+………….. Please get the word out.. this is going to be Zachary’s biggest fight of all to find him a perfect match….

ALL of these KIDS have had a kidney Transplant and are in rejection, or needs a new Kidney. They all need our prayers….
